Iīm working for the first time in Brazilian Cinema as a assistent editor and i`m having a serious problem with Cinema Tools Reverse Telecine.
Iīve read the manual but I canīt get any solution.
We shoot the movie in 16mm with an Aaton minima camera.
The telecine was made to dv tapes.
Iīve created a database in Cinema tools with the flex files, exported a xml to final cut and batch captured.
My problem is:
When I use the Cinema tools reverse telecine and open my clip in Final Cut (6.0.3), it still contain fields and I canīt read the letters of the window burn
The field pattern is A2 B2 C1 D1 D3 -- Field 2 only as we can read in the manual.
Iīm reversing for 23.98 fps
Iīve tried with the "Standard upper/lower" checked and unchecked with no positive results... When I open in the Final Cut, in a 23.98 project, and see the clip
frame by frame, I canīt read the letters and there is fields...
In page 132 of Cinema tools manual,you can read in the "Check telecine results" session ---> "each letter should be clearly legible..."
Thatīs my nightmare... What should I do? Can anyone give me a solution for this problem??

Are you sure the source contains 3:2:3:2 pulldown? As you jog through it you should see three full progressive frames followed by two frames that have mismatched fields. And then it will repeat.
